Public Health Action Campaign

Join APHA members, Affiliates and other advocates in educating members
of Congress on important public health issues that help build and
maintain healthy communities. Reach out to
your congressional leaders to express support for protecting critical
funding for public health agencies and the Prevention and Public Health
Fund, addressing the health impacts of climate change and protecting the Affordable Care Act. When we all raise our
voices together, our leaders in Congress are more likely to listen!

The Public Health Action, or PHACT, campaign gives you the tools you need to talk to your members of Congress about the importance of public health.

Read the series of Senate Dear Colleague letters spearheaded by Ranking Member of the Senate HELP Committee, Sen. Patty Murray, and joined by other senators addressed to their fellow colleagues to educate them on the public health benefits of the prevention fund. Be sure to thank your senator for their support if they signed the letter!
